Sandie ◊ 2010-11-06 15:56	Possibly. We'll need someone who can recognise a Jag V12 or 4litre V6 to confirm. Chrome edge to windscreen fits. It seems to have front quarterlights meaning if it is an XJ-S it is pre-1991 facelift and as such is XJ-S rather than XJS. -- Last edit: 2010-11-06 15:59:18

Sandie ◊ 2010-11-06 16:25	Knew there was something to do with the V6 that changed in 91. I initially thought it was that was when it was first introduced, hence my edit. I'm still not totally certain it is XJ-S.

G-MANN ◊ 2010-11-15 02:17	The XJS never had a V6 engine, it had Straight-6 engines. And that engine doesn't look Jaguar at all. -- Last edit: 2010-11-15 02:19:49
owlman ◊ 2010-11-15 05:13	Maybe it's a Chevy 350 engine conversion? Everything else looks XJ-S... dash, chrome trim, cowl vent placement, distance from windshield to hood...
